Wakefield Park Video - In Car Camera

[justinfox]

Hi guys, couldn't wait to get out on the track again. GT-R is in the workshop getting an engine rebuild so I took my sisters little MR2 Spyder out for a spin at Wakefield.

I just bought a video camera and manfrotto suction mount (find them in a Ted's pro camera shop for under $200) worked a treat!

I've compressed it to keep it small (only 6mb). Hope you like it!

PS: A lot of fun. I only brake 3 times in one lap (turn 2, hairpin + last corner) and the rest is throttle control. It's very different to driving a GT-R that's for sure, more on the limit, more desperate, much harder to overtake but a lot of fun catching faster cars in the corners. Wouldn't trade my GT-R for it though but still... I was impressed with it... all stock too (sussy and tyres were stock).

Nice movie mate.... that car can stick to the road pretty well......

my wakefield experiences are always good......... brake early... good line.... apex... power out of corner... DOOOOOOOOORRRIIIFFFTTTOOOOOOOOOOOO........

i was a bit excited on my first lap ever there on the horseshoe and it was either run off the road or rev it.. dump it and drift....... gotta go again

Haha yeah my sister was AOK about me taking her car out on the track, she wanted to come actually but didn't make it on the day and far out that liyyle laugh I do... wasn't the only one on the day that's for sure... since it was just us on the track (only about 10 of us in our group) and we all knew each other it was a lot more fun... like playing GT4!

The car is dead stock, no turbo, 1.8 and very soft and tall springs but because it's so light and has such awesome turn-in it wasn't so mich of a problem although hav ing said that... if it had coilovers and semis it would be a very very fast car around Wakefield.

I only managed 1.20 in the little MR2.

Can't wait to get the GT-R out there when it's done. I'm sure the in car camera video will be a lot more exciting! ^_^
